Was it a Dakota?

My wife and I walked through a Dakota whilst on a visit to Elvington
air museum. She happened to mention that when she was younger she
boarded a "sloping" aircraft in 1963 for a holiday flight from
Newcastle to Jersey. Could it have been a Dakota operating such a
flight?

Thanks

In the 50's I flew a few times with BKS from Belfast to Edinburgh and
from what I can remember the aircraft was a Dakota - DC3 or as the
military termed it Goony Bird.
